Heat From Light Bulbs - the higher the watts, the hotter the bulb?

Heat From Light Bulbs - the higher the watts, the hotter the bulb?

A compact fluorescent bulb gives off very little heat energy because they do not use resistance and cause a light to glow hot.

Peanut Power - use the energy stored in a peanut to heat water.

Peanut Power - use the energy stored in a peanut to heat water.

The chemical energy stored in the peanut was released and converted into heat energy. The heat energy raised the temperature of the water in the small can.

Does the brightness of a bulb vary when different gases are used to fill the bulb?

Does the brightness of a bulb vary when different gases are used to fill the bulb?

The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the type of gas inside a light bulb has any effect on the brightness of the buld, and if so what type of gas produces the brightest bulb
